I'm in the dark ages when it comes to the intel macs, so I have a question, it looks like the wireless, camera, and mic will now work in XP, right? but will they also work with a linux distro, or was bootcamp created just with windoze in mind?

Yes, Bootcamp was created with Windows XP in mind, but that doesn't mean you cannot run other OSs with it (apparently Linux works).

I'm pretty sure I read a few articles about triple booting, between Linux, WinXP, and Vista, besides the usual Mac. I guess that makes it quad booting. Google it, im sure you'll find it.

Also wanted to point out that 186MB is quite heavy for a update, esp for an update from 1.1 to 1.1.1!!
